LA’s Cold Showers stick as steadfastly to their name as they do their roots: their debut is the stuff of Factory Records and early-2K NYC, of frigid cool and young, too-horny traces of post-punk. So when Love and Regret sounds both old and new, both insanely derivative and sometimes transcendent, you can probably guess the rest: great introduction to a band who’ll, let’s hope, warm up to a looser aesthetic focus in the near future.
